Body for Rent: Why "My Choice" Is a Crime Against the Creator

Body for Rent: Why "My Choice" Is a Crime Against the Creator

The modern doctrine "My body, my business" comes into direct conflict with spiritual property rights. According to the sources, a person is not the owner of their body — they are merely its temporary guardian.

Desertion from Post

The body is viewed as a sacred deposit, given by God to a person to fulfill a specific mission. From this perspective, suicide is not a personal choice, but an act of theft and desertion. A person who ends their life is like a servant who abandoned the post entrusted to them before the replacement arrived. For this they will be judged as a murderer, even if the "victim" is themselves.

Criminal Negligence

Trust in God does not give the right to recklessness regarding health. One who deliberately takes risks, ignores illness, or walks into fire hoping for a miracle commits the sin of "testing God." A person is obligated to care for the vessel (body), for if the vessel breaks through their fault, they will answer for the destruction of God's property, which was given to them for rent for a strictly defined period.
